Oh, and by the way, the reason that I say 1998 Yankees linup is for a National League style, is that generally a pitcher is placed 9th because he is the weakest hitter. On the Yankees this year, look at a guy like Cano. He is not the weakest hitter by far, but he is sometimes 9th because he is another great leadoff style hitter. Then again, Torre can be unconventional sometimes, e.g. batting A-Rod 6th last night.
